https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D237795 --- Comment #7 from Kubilay Kocak <koobs@FreeBSD.org> --- I have no idea how the situation ended up resolving itself, but being provi= ded that information, or an opportunity to obtain it may have been enlightening. As far as I can see, the gnumeric case is a case of wrong dependencies. gnumeric cannot logically *only* support 2.7, and have a set of dependencies that *don't also* support 2.7. Either gnumeric is incorrectly constraining itself to 2.7 when it supports = 3.x, or gobject-introspection is incorrectly constrained to 3.4+, when it also supports 2.7, or some dependencies are spurious. math/gnumeric (2.7) `-- devel/pygobject3-common (no python version-spec, any version) `-- devel/gobject-introspection (3.4+) And I don't see how 'installing it manually' can fix *this* issue. You cant install py36-gobject-introspection and have it be a satisfactory dependency for py27-pygobject3-common You also cant install py36-pygobject3-common to get py36-gobject-introspect= ion and have either of those satisfy math/gnumeric which only ever wants/suppor= ts (at present) 2.7. If I'm misunderstanding what you meant, please elaborate with an example of 'installing it manually, not as a automatic, depends', that fixes *this* is= sue, which is: a) a port requiring one specific version (eg: only 2.7) b) cannot be built when one of its dependencies (eg: gobject-introspection) c) requires a version that does not overlap with its own (eg: 3.4+) But I can't see how that's possible, as making (a)(b)(c) work is precluded fundamentally just by the the Python ecosystem works. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.=
